I baught a car from a member on here and he had the de-rego papers for the car. I am at the stage now when i need them and i cannot get in touch with him. How can i get another copy? The car did not come through a broker, the guy imported it himself.

How long does it taketo get them? Can i comply the car without them??

thanks

If you have the original invoice from whoever sold the car to the other bloke in Japan, try contacting them.

The compliance workshop who applied for the import approval may already have a copy, but I suspect it's them who is hounding you for it. Actually, ask the workshop for the copy of the invoice from the dealer/agent in Japan might be your best shot - the RAW would've needed it when they applied for the import approval in the first place.

I dont have the orignal invoice unfortunatley. And yes its the complience workshop chasing it.

I will ask the RAW what you said about the invoice, and then try contacting them. If that dosent work is there a way i can get it if i have the VIN number? like get it from japan? Is there someone that can do that?

Another dead end

The raw only has a copy of the import approval. Have someone that can find the de-rego in japan but need a license plate number and that i dont have.

So pretty much screwed, have a car i cannot complience. The guy has fanished and im feeling a tad ripped off!!

I don't understand how the workshop could possibly have got the import approval without some kind of original invoice from Japan as proof of purchase. Anyway, the other place that will have a copy of the invoice would be the customs broker that handled the customs work. Seeing you're from WA, try the usual culprits over there, like Universal Customs Brokers - there's a remote chance they might have done it. Your aim is to get the invoice from Japan, that way you can track down the company who sold the car from over there, as they will probably have a copy of the de-reg.

I'd also be trying to find the person who sold you the car a bit harder too :whistling:

They dont need the Jap dereg. They keep if for their records but can comply the car without it. How do you think workshop compliance cars imported from NZ, US etc. No jap dereg!! If they wont comply it request that it gets signed over to another workshop. What type of car is it? The Stagea?

      It would be well worth deciding where you want to go and what you care about. Reliability of everything in a 34 drops MASSIVELY above the 300kw mark. Keeping everything going great at beyond that value will cost ten times the $. Clutches become shit, gearboxes (and engines/bottom ends) become consumable, traction becomes crap. The good news is looking legalish/actually being legal is slighly under the 300kw mark. I would make the assumption you want to ditch the stock plenum too and want to go a front facing unit of some description due to the cross flow. Do the bends on a return flow hurt? Not really. A couple of bends do make a difference but not nearly as much in a forced induction situation. Add 1psi of boost to overcome it. Nobody has ever gone and done a track session monitoring IAT then done a different session on a different intercooler and monitored IAT to see the difference here. All of the benefits here are likely in the "My engine is a forged consumable that I drive once a year because it needs a rebuild every year which takes 9 months of the year to complete" territory. It would be well worth deciding where you want to go and what you care about with this car.

      By "reverse flow", do you mean "return flow"? Being the IC having a return pipe back behind the bumper reo, or similar? If so... I am currently making ~250 rwkW on a Neo at ~17-18 psi. With a return flow. There's nothing to indicate that it is costing me a lot of power at this level, and I would be surprised if I could not push it harder. True, I have not measured pressure drop across it or IAT changes, but the car does not seem upset about it in any way. I won't be bothering to look into it unless it starts giving trouble or doesn't respond to boost increases when I next put it on the dyno. FWIW, it was tuned with the boost controller off, so achieving ~15-16 psi on the wastegate spring alone, and it is noticeably quicker with the boost controller on and yielding a couple of extra pounds. Hence why I think it is doing OK. So, no, I would not arbitrarily say that return flows are restrictive. Yes, they are certainly restrictive if you're aiming for higher power levels. But I also think that the happy place for a street car is <300 rwkW anyway, so I'm not going to be aiming for power levels that would require me to change the inlet pipework. My car looks very stock, even though everything is different. The turbo and inlet pipes all look stock and run in the stock locations, The airbox looks stock (apart from the inlet being opened up). The turbo looks stock, because it's in the stock location, is the stock housings and can't really be seen anyway. It makes enough power to be good to drive, but won't raise eyebrows if I ever f**k up enough for the cops to lift the bonnet.

      There is a guy who said he can weld me piping without having to cut chassis, maybe I do that ? Or do I just go reverse flow but isn’t reverse flow very limited once again?
